At Promptin', we live by the slogan, "Promptin' Ain't Easy. Use a professional."
Our diverse group of ops have all had extensive theater and studio backgrounds before coming aboard the good ship Promptin'. They are then trained in a veritable teleprompting dojo on the banks of the mighty Hudson by the Grand Poobahs of prompting. These mythical men and women have had over 30 years of combined industry experience and are said to scroll so smoothly that competitors feel the need to knock off their unique approaches.
Promptin' ops are so pro-level, that many of them forget they even have first names... They respond simply to shouts of "Prompter!"
Now, if you've hired another Prompter company (Especially a promptin' knock off) in recent past, you can fill 3 spaces on the "nope, never again" bingo card with these:
- 1. The weirdo prompter guy with the ironic mustache and the schtick. He loves chatting up the client/talent. Shows off way too much chest hair for the modern age. Bonus if he shows up with a laptop made before Apple was a company... Double bonus if it's from an era before apples were a fruit.
- 2. The overly confident "film maker" girl who shows up in the gross hoodie and the teenie weenie beanie and actually talks to the talent (about her podcast and her crypto...) Tries promptin' humor, but nahhhh.
- 3. The newbie intern/family member who doesn't know the difference between a riser block and a counterbalance weight and definitely doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're."
